Additional Rights We Retain
ReturnMe has no obligation or responsibility to provide service of any kind for Customers who do not activate (or register) their recovery tags or maintain a valid working email address & contact number. We strongly encourage all of our customers to make sure report@return.me as well as emails being sent from the @return.me domain are white listed (or labelled as safe senders) in customers’ email profiles, to ensure emails being sent to you from ReturnMe are not automatically filtered into spam or junk folders. We also strongly encourage customers to enter secondary contact numbers and email address from my account at www.return.me.

(i.e. a ReturnMe mobile sticker protecting a luggage bag)

Your Membership
ReturnMe has 3 types of memberships, detailed information can be found here.
Bronze: This is a free membership. Customers will never pay to be a Bronze member. If customer’s item is lost and found ReturnMe will email you the information of the finder. The owner may meet up with the finder and retrieve your item. If the owner requires help to have the item shipped back to them by ReturnMe there will be shipping and handling costs involved. Please note ReturnMe will only communicate by email to Bronze members and therefore having updated contact information is your responsibility.
Silver & Gold : Silver and Gold are paid memberships and include several benefits not included in the Bronze membership. ReturnMe will also pickup your lost item from the finder and ship it back to the owner anywhere in the world at no charge.
Customers may login to their ReturnMe account to confirm their membership status and expiry date. At any time customers can upgrade their membership level. ReturnMe will send a reminder email to the owner 15 days before their membership expires and again at 1 day before. Customers can decide to update their membership at that time or if they chose not to they will automatically become a Bronze customer. There are no fees associated with being a Bronze customer.
Free tag replacements are included with both the Silver and Gold memberships. A maximum of 5 tags can be replaced every year.
Please Note: When your item is being shipped, ReturnMe insures it for a maximum of $300 USD. If additional insurance is required owner will have the option to discuss with the ReturnMe recovery agent. ReturnMe doesn’t take any responsibility for the delay or potential loss which may incur during the shipping process by the third party but will make every effort to ensure your item is quickly and safely returned.
ReturnMe will not ship any animals, instead we will notify the owner where the animal is and it is the owner’s responsibility to pick up their animal promptly. When shipping items internationally there may be custom, duties and taxes. ReturnMe will explain the requirements and possible associated costs before arranging any shipment across international borders.
In cases where the owner and finder agree to meet directly or shipping the item/belonging is not an option (example cat or dog), ReturnMe will facilitate the Owner and Finder to communicate directly together, in order to have the item returned. At this point, ReturnMe will not be held liable for any communication, security, or theft-related incidents. ReturnMe strongly recommends giving as little information as possible to the Finder as we cannot guarantee if the information may be used for malicious purposes. When attempting to contact you as part of providing service, we will use the means of contact pertaining to your subscription and the profile information you provided. Contacting you is on the best efforts only basis and we are not liable for situations that arise because you did not receive notifications, whether that’s due to our performance, a third parties or your own.
Whether you have found a possession or are the owner who has been notified, when choosing to communicate, meet or interact with another person (ie: owner, finder) via the information provided by ReturnMe, you do so at your own risk. Please exercise appropriate measures to protect your security, safety and confidentiality at all times. ReturnMe takes no responsibility when finders and owners are in contact with each other. Either party may contact ReturnMe to assist in arranging the recovery of your lost item should you not wish to communicate with the finder.
Important reminders for your safety before contacting the finder of your item:
ReturnMe strongly urges you to follow the guidelines indicated below, while personally connecting with the finder of your lost item. Minors under the age of 18 shouldn’t meet with the finder alone. Contact should be done in the company of a parent or guardian in that case. Be mindful of sharing any personal information such as your home phone number or home address with the finder. It is always best to meet at a public location such as a public library or a college campus when retrieving your item. When meeting the finder, choose a well-lit area and consider bringing a friend so you're not alone. Use your judgment if something about a situation doesn't feel right, trust your instincts and immediately remove yourself from the situation. Never attempt to confront someone yourself if you feel that a crime has been or is being committed, contact the authorities immediately.
Note: ReturnMe accepts no responsibility for actions taken or events caused by any party prior to, during or following any communication or contact made between you, the “Owner” of the recovered item, and its "Finder", as clearly indicated.
